Border Collie Rescue
We appeal to everyone out there, who has a passion for Border collies to please come forward and assist Border Collie Rescue to continue its worthy work. We need more volunteers to step up to take some of the load off. We salute those of you who are always there to support us, please help us to enlarge our circle of helpers.
Adopt a Border Collie
Find out how to adopt a pet quick & easy
There are several Border Collies or Border Collie cross breeds of all ages (including several senior citizens, perfect for those who are not sure that they can handle the frantic lifestyle of a young BC!) waiting for a second chance.
We have a strict adoption process. An adoption form must be completed and is subject to approval as well as a property check. The more info that you can provide us with; the better we can match your needs with the right dog.
The rescue fee is currently a minimum of R750 per adult dog and R800 per puppy. You welcome to pay more so we can continue rescuing more collies.
Please note that the completion of our adoption form and/or the checking of your property does not guarantee you a dog from Border Collie Rescue.
Please contact Julie Morris on Cell 082-887-9668 or Home on 011 395 2259 or [email protected] if you would like to give one of our rescue dogs a second chance in life. We will send you and adoption application to get the process started.
This adoption fee includes, the spay, neuter, vaccination, deworming and Microchip. A bargain for lifetime of love.
